Unity Meet (July 28-29, 2007)
In the last meet of the
2007 Long Course season, all Raiders were invited to compete at the third
annual Unity meet hosted by BCSC at UMBC’s outdoor
50-meter pool. The small contingent of eighteen
Raiders performed very well against several much larger teams, finishing fifth
overall. In fact, prior to Sunday
afternoon’s session for 12&under swimmers, the Raiders were second in the
team competition!

for 8&Under Boys in the 50 free (42.58) and 100 free (1:42.41) and broke
Matt Cooke’s record from 2002 in the 100 back (1:59.16). For 9-10 Boys, Andrew Nguyen broke Brett Farrell’s records in the 50 free, 100
free (1:31.35), 50 breast, and 50 butterfly and Daniel Grigg’s
100 breast record set earlier this year.
Tré Johnson established the records for
11-12 Boys in the 50 fly (50.23) and 100 back (1:48.09) and shaved .33 second
from Christian Ritacco’s record from 2002 in the 50
free. Tyler Grigg established the new standards for 13-14 Boys in the 50
back and 50 fly. Mike Biffel established the 50 back record for 15-18 Boys with a
time of 29.85, also eclipsing Josh Huger’s Open
record from 2002 in the event. For the
girls, Kourtney Miller lowered her own records for
9-10 Girls in the 50 free, 200 free, 50 fly, and 100 back and eclipsed Audrey
Donahue’s record in the 200 IM by 10.71 seconds. Leann
Miller established the record for 13-14 Girls in the 50 back. Jackie
Hynson knocked 1.94 seconds from Jessica Wright’s 15-18 50 breast record and lowered her own standards in the 50 free, 100
back, 50 fly, and 200 IM. All except the
50 free were also records in the Open division.
The relays also swam well. The
Boys Open 200 Medley (Mike Biffel, Andy Snider, Curt Albert, Matt Horton) won with a time of 2:04.94,
and the Boys Open 200 Free set a new Raider record in addition to the meet
record with a first place time of 1:50.28.
The quartet of Sarah Grigg, Jackie Hynson, Kathleen Lyon, and Leann
Miller, established the Girls Open 200 Medley Relay record and Girls Open 200
Free Relay record with second place finishes and times of 2:20.33 and 2:03.61,
respectively. Sarah Grigg’s
leadoff leg of 36.14 in the medley relay knocked nearly a second from her team
record in the 15-18 Girls 50 Back, breaking the last of the 34 new team records
established at this meet!

Alex Nguyen, and Andrew Nguyen all had impressive debuts
with the Raiders, including their contributions to team records noted above. Tré swam a B time in the 50 free (37.13),
and Andrew swam four BB time and two B times, capturing three top-eight

Speedo Champions Series
Super Sectional (July 19-22, 2007)
Jackie Hynson represented the Raiders at
the Speedo Champions Series Super Sectional held at St. Mary’s College on July
19-22, 2007. She was entered in just one
event, 200 meter butterfly, and made the most of the opportunity. During preliminaries on July 21, she won her
heat with a time of 2:22.42, the third fastest time overall. That evening she competed in championship
finals, capturing a bronze medal with a AAAA time of
2:21.56. She swam just shy of her
personal best time of 2:21.42 swum a week earlier and just .39 seconds over the
Speedo Summer Junior Nationals qualifying cut.

July 11-14 at
Jackie Hynson
led the Raiders in top finishes, making the championship (A) final in the 100 butterfly,
B final in the 200 butterfly, and C final in the 200 backstroke. She swam Sectional-qualifying times in the
100 and 200 butterfly, and her time in the 200 fly missed a Speedo Junior Nationals
cut by a mere .23 seconds! She also
broke eight team records. She lowered
her records from 2005 in the 100 fly (by .47 sec) and 200 back (by 5.15
seconds), and she shattered her record set just a month ago in the 200 butterfly
by nearly seven seconds. She also eclipsed
Kathleen Lyon’s record from 2006 in the 400 IM by nearly eleven seconds. All were also records in the Open category.
Jake Quartuccio
and Mike Biffel led the team in
personal bests, swimming six apiece. Jake also broke the minute mark for the first
time in the 100 free, knocked 6.68 seconds from his own 15-18 and Open records
in the 800 free, and eclipsed by 1.57 seconds the 15-18 and Open records in the
400 IM, which had been set by Mike earlier this season. Meanwhile, Mike knocked 4.38 seconds from his own 15-18 and Open records in the
200 back.
In addition to Jackie’s
three appearances at finals, Kathleen
Lyon qualified for the C final in 100 butterfly, and Mike Biffel qualified for the C final in the 100 back (which he
scratched due to a scheduling conflict) and B final in the 200 back. All five swims by the Raiders at Finals
resulted in time improvements over the prelims swims; Kathleen jumped from 24th
place to 18th with her 1:07.90 swim at Finals!
The quartet of Jackie Hynson, Kathleen Lyon, Sarah Grigg,
and Anna Wells broke the last of the
fifteen team records, establishing the Girls Open 400 free relay record with a

NCSA
Junior Nationals (
In
the last Raiders competition of the 2006-2007 short course season,
sixteen-year-old Jackie Hynson
represented the team at the Junior Nationals swim meet held at the Orlando YMCA
in Florida. The meet attracted over 1200
elite swimmers from all over the United States as well as overseas. Jackie entered the meet with qualifying times
in the 50 and 100-yard butterfly and a bonus qualifying time in the 200
fly. In addition to those three events,
she swam time trials in the 200 freestyle and 200 backstroke.
Jackie
swam four personal best times in her five swims, setting new Raider records for
15-18 Girls and OPEN Girls in all four.
Her best swim was the 200 butterfly, where she dropped nearly three
seconds, posted a AAAA time of 2:05.89, and qualified to swim at Junior
Nationals again next year. Seeded 125th
going in to the meet, she captured an impressive 45th place
finish. She also swam personal bests in
the 50 fly (26.95), 200 free (1:57.25, AAA) and 200 back (2:11.61, AAA). The 200 free and 200 back times qualify
Jackie in additional events for next year’s Sectional competition.
Speedo
Champions Series (Sectionals) (March
15-18, 2007)
Raiders
Josh Huger, Jackie Hynson, Kathleen Lyon,
Nathan Stephens, and Will Webber qualified and competed
individual events at the Southern Region Sectionals held at the Germantown
Indoor Swim Center near Gaithersburg, Maryland.
Mike Biffel, Christine Dunleavy,
Sarah Grigg, and Anna Wells also represented the
Raiders, swimming in relay events.
Will Webber had the top individual
performance for the Raiders, breaking a minute in the 100 breast for the first
time (59.97, AAA) and finishing sixth in the event. His time and split (27.50) were team records,
lowering Will’s own standards in the 15-18 Boys and OPEN 50 breast and 100
breast. The top relay performance was
turned in by the quartet of Jackie
Hynson, Christine Dunleavy, Kathleen
Lyon, and Anna Wells in the 200
medley relay. They crushed the Raider
record set earlier this year by nearly six seconds, swimming a time of
1:55.67. Jackie’s leadoff leg (29.04)
lowered her 15-18 Girls and OPEN team record in the 50 back.
Jackie Hynson also qualified for
finals. She finished thirteenth in the
200 fly (2:09.45, AAA) and twentieth in the 100 free (54.72, AAA), qualifying
for consolation and bonus finals, respectively.
She scratched finals due to a scheduling conflict with the upcoming
Junior Nationals competition. Her 100
free time is a new team record for 15-18 and OPEN Girls. Jackie also swam the 100 back as a bonus
event, posting a AAA time of 1:01.39, and again breaking her own record in the
15-18 and OPEN categories. Mike Biffel swam a new personal best
time at the meet. His leadoff leg in the
400 medley relay (56.46, AA) eclipsed his previous best, swum just two weeks
ago. Nathan Stephens also posted a personal best time of 23.88 in the 50
free, barely missing a AA cut.

forty Raiders competed at the Winter Wake-Up Meet hosted by CBAC at St. Mary’s
College on January 26-28. “Odd-age” age groups
were used at this timed finals meet, with swimmers competing in the
9&Under, 10-11, 12-13, and 14&Over divisions. Twelve-year-old Ashley Warren led the girls with seven personal best times,

time, qualifying him for Junior All-Stars.
Daniel Grigg posted a B time
in his first time competing the 100 back, and Gus Paras swam BB times in his first time
competing the 200 back and 200 IM. James Quartuccio showed terrific time

In
relays, the quartet of Sarah Grigg, Jackie Hynson, Kathleen Lyon, and Charlotte
Taft won the 200 medley relay (2:01.13) and finished third in the 200 free
relay (1:46.76), both setting new team relay records for Open Girls. In addition, Jackie’s lead-off leg of 29.61
in the medley relay broke the team records (15-18 Girls and Open Girls) in the

Cassel’s
Christmas Invitational (December 14-17, 2006)
Thirty-eight
Raiders competed at the four-day meet hosted by the Potomac Marlins at George
Mason University. The meet was held in a
prelims/finals format and attracted over 1100 swimmers from twenty teams across
Maryland, Virginia, and New Jersey.
Sixteen-year-old Jackie Hynson
had a stellar meet. She posted personal
best times in six of her seven individual events, captured five top-eight
finishes, and qualified two events (100 and 200 butterfly) for Junior Nationals!
Jackie
also played a role in fifteen of the 23 team records set at the meet. She set the new standard in the 15-18 Girls
100 free, 100 butterfly, 200 butterfly, 200 IM, and 400 IM. Her split in the 100 fly (26.96) and leadoff
leg in the 400 medley relay (1:01.61) also lowered her records in the 50 fly
and 100 back, respectively. All seven
were also records in the OPEN category. Kathleen Lyon assisted in the rewrite
of the 15-18 Girls record book, breaking the team records in the 500 free and
1000 free. Both were also records in the
OPEN category.
Jackie
and Kathleen were joined by Sarah Grigg
and Charlotte Taft in the Senior
Girls 400 free relay. The foursome
shattered the existing team relay record by six seconds and qualified for
Sectionals with a time of 3:44.83.
Sarah’s leadoff leg of 57.27 is a personal best time in the 100 free and
qualifies her for All-Stars. The
remaining two female records were set by Kourtney Miller, lowering her own record in the 100 back and eclipsing
Megan Cooke’s record from 2002 in the 50 back.
For the boys, Jake Quartuccio
eclipsed Jonathan Michela’s team record in 15-18 1000
free. Also, the quartet of Matthew Cooke, Tyler Grigg, Javi Frontanes, and Patrick
Jackman established the record (4:59.64) for
13-14 Boys 400 Medley Relay.

& Rock (November 17-19, 2006)
Thirty-eight
Raiders attended the three-day meet hosted by Sea Devils Swimming at Oak
Marr. Swimmers aged ten and under
competed in a timed finals format. The
older swimmers competed in preliminaries each morning with the top qualifiers
returning for the evening finals sessions.
The
Raiders were led by senior girls Jackie
Hynson and Kathleen Lyon who
both qualified for finals in all seven of their events. Jackie improved upon her prelims times in all
seven events, while Kathleen improved in five!
Both also posted three top three finishes: Kathleen captured seconds in the 500 free,
400 IM, and 200 butterfly, while Jackie won the 200 butterfly and finished
second in the 100 butterfly and third in the 200 free. Jackie swam Sectional-qualifying times in the
100 and 200 butterfly, and Kathleen qualified in the 200 butterfly. The two girls were also responsible for seven
of the eleven team records broken at the meet.
Jackie set four (15-18 Girls and Open Girls 100 butterfly and 200
butterfly), and Kathleen set three (15-18 Girls and Open Girls 500 free and 15-18
Girls 400 IM). They were joined in the
female record book by nine-year-old Kourtney Miller
who broke Megan Cooke’s record from 2001 in the 9-10 Girls 100 back.
Mike Biffel led the Raiders boys with
personal best times in all five of his events, dropping a total of 56+ seconds,
and qualifying for championship finals in three events. Will
Webber also swam well, finishing fourth in the 100 breast with a
Sectional-qualifying time. His split in the event (27.88) also lowered his team
records in 15-18 Boys and Open Boys 50 breast.
The last of the eleven team records was set by Blake Clift, recapturing his record in the 9-10 Boys 50 butterfly
that Brett Farrell had broken just four weeks ago.
Ten-year-old
Taylor Stark had a dynamite debut for
the Raiders, finishing third in the 100 breast with an A time. Also making their debut with the Raiders were
Chase Renz,
who swam four B times in his first-ever USA meet, and Mackay Mismash. Finally, congratulations to the following
